Basket of Knowledge Kete Tuauri

There is a Maori creation myth in which the gods gave to humans three baskets containing the knowledge they needed to live on Earth.They hold the knowledge of the natural world-Kete Arounui, the spiritual world-Kete Tuaatea, and our rational world-Kete Tuauri. The knowledge needs to be in balance for us to live harmoniously on Earth. Inspired by this story, the Basket of Knowledge - Kete Tuauri features an aluminum basket and shroud that houses an energy efficient and long lasting LED spot light. Also available in Bamboo and Polycarbonate versions. 32 inch diameter x 82 inches high. Ships assembled.

Educated in boat design but self-taught in furniture design, David Trubridge traveled the world by yacht and found inspiration for his line of eco-friendly lighting and furniture. David Trubridge light fixtures are constructed from the most sustainable timber, plywood and plastic available, and only non-toxic, organic oil finishes are used. The geometric patterns used in David Trubridge chandeliers and pendants come from shapes found in nature, like coral reefs, sea urchins and snowflakes. Their unexpected patterns and use of color are a refreshing take on the modern lighting we know today.
